Democrats' Cheering Ended : Republicans Vow to Destroy OgbjmaCare

In truth the Republicans don't have a choice but to get back to work to Repeal and Replace OgbjmaCare as it is headed for the doomster leaving millions of people with out health care insurance  coverage.

What is perplexing is why it always up to the Republicans to fix the mistakes of the progressive democrats? And it not just in healthcare, it's foreign policy, immigration, education, and justice. The nightmare of corruption of common sense and the law is so wide spread that most us down here in the trenches can't begin to comprehend the actually depth of the problems.

But solving the OgbjmaCare disaster is a good start, and the Republicans have to know they will be opposed, savaged on all fronts, including the media. There will no limits on what the progressive socialist democrats won't do to save Barack's legacy.

If you haven't noticed already, the attacks have been brutal from the democrats even when they have to know they are doing the population harm. It's just who they are. Don't vote

House Republicans Renew Plans to Repeal Obamacare After Failed First Attempt

Melissa Quinn / /    

Just four days after House Speaker Paul Ryan declared Obamacare the “law of the land,” House Republicans say they’re moving forward with their plan to repeal and replace the health care law despite the divisions in their party on how to reform the health insurance market.

Ryan and members of his leadership team reaffirmed their support for unwinding the Affordable Care Act during a weekly press conference with reporters Tuesday, saying that their first failed attempt to replace Obamacare wouldn’t deter them from moving forward. “We’re not going to retrench into our corners or put up dividing lines,” Ryan said after a meeting with Republican lawmakers. “There’s too much at stake to get bogged down in all of that.” The renewed focus on repealing Obamacare came after Ryan decided to withdraw the House GOP’s health care bill Friday, a decision made after it became clear there wouldn’t be enough votes to pass it.

Republicans released their plan to repeal the health care law and implement parts of a replacement at the beginning of the month. But the bill lacked a natural constituency. Instead, both centrist Republicans and conservatives decried the plan—conservatives disliked it because they felt it wouldn’t lower the cost of premiums, and centrist Republicans felt it didn’t do enough to protect those newly enrolled in Medicaid.

After pulling the bill, Ryan told reporters “Obamacare is the law of the land” and stressed that Republicans would instead move on to other items on their agenda, like tax reform. But by Tuesday morning, Republicans appeared to have regrouped, and Ryan stressed the GOP conference would continue to work toward gaining consensus on a replacement plan even as they tackle other legislative priorities. “We’re going to get this right,” Ryan said, “and in the meantime, we’re going to do all the other work we came here to do.”

Any path forward on Obamacare’s replacement is going to require agreement between conservatives and centrist Republicans, factions of the party that opposed the House GOP’s health care bill for different reasons. But the two groups appear willing to further engage in talks over health care reform.

According to The New York Times, the House Freedom Caucus and centrist Tuesday Group are engaging in talks with Stephen Bannon, President Donald Trump’s top strategist. And even Ryan, who said Friday some Republicans in the House couldn’t get to “yes” on the bill, told reporters Tuesday that Republicans would “sit down and talk things out” until they compromise. “We saw good overtures from those members from different parts of our conference to get there because we all share these goals, and we’re just going to have to figure out how to get it done,” the speaker said.
Ryan wouldn’t elaborate on any details of a new plan or on a timeline. But some conservatives are already plotting their own path.

Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala., filed a bill Friday that fully repeals Obamacare. Brooks, along with some conservatives, also may use a legislative tool that would force a floor vote on a bill dismantling the health care law. The plan requires Brooks to collect 216 signatures on a discharge petition. Once that happens, and after the legislation has remained in committee for 30 days, the lower chamber would be forced to vote on the bill.
“We will find out who is truly for repeal of Obamacare and who is not,” Brooks told reporters.
